Archangel Dojo

TOMARI-TE
The forgotten bridge of Okinawan karate.

A new long-form documentary is coming this Saturday on Archangel Dojo.

Members get early access 24 hours before public release.

This is not about styles.
It’s about origins, function, and what karate was before it had rules.

Archangel Dojo

NEW VIDEO IS READY

The new documentary
“Why Full Contact Karate Was Never Meant for the Olympics”
has just been uploaded.

🔒 Today at 8 PM it will go live as Members-Only (Early Access)
🌍 24 hours later the video will be released publicly

This video breaks down:
– what the Olympic system actually requires
– what full contact karate was originally built for
– why these two worlds could never truly coexist
– and what happens when you try to blend incompatible philosophies

This is not an attack on Olympic karate.
It’s an explanation of systems, values, and purpose.

📘 Book update:
My book Way of the Empty Hand is now entering its final stage.
Channel members already have access to exclusive audio chapters ahead of the official release next month.

K-1 was never about style vs style.

It was about truth under pressure.

Which fighter, in your opinion, best represented the K-1 era?

Power & explosion — or control & precision?
